Curso ótimo para entender o ritmo de corte em vídeos verticais, minhas retenções melhoraram bem depois de aplicar as técnicas de cortes rápidos.

Vor diesem Kurs habe ich meine vertikalen Videos einfach zusammengeschnitten, ohne wirklich auf den Rhythmus zu achten. Jetzt verstehe ich, wie wichtig das Timing der Schnitte für die Zuschauerbindung ist. Besonders die Lektion über das Anpassen der Schnittfrequenz an die Musik und die Sprechpausen war ein Aha-Moment für mich. Seitdem ich darauf achte, bleiben die Leute deutlich länger dran. Auch die Beispiele waren praxisnah und gut nachvollziehbar. Klare Empfehlung für jeden, der für Hochformat produziert.

Je galérais à garder mes spectateurs au-delà des premières secondes sur mes vidéos verticales. Ce cours m'a fait comprendre que tout est une question de rythme et de coupes au bon moment. La partie sur la cadence du montage selon l'émotion de la scène était vraiment éclairante. Depuis que j'applique ces principes, ma rétention a clairement grimpé. Les exemples concrets rendent tout très facile à reproduire. Franchement, c'est exactement ce qu'il me fallait pour progresser.
